Hey! Thanks for stopping by!  *hi-fives all around* 

My name is Patrick.  My wife and I have been married for six years.  We
love car camping all over the Cascades and the Olympics, as well as more
serious international adventures. Ask me about the trip where we hiked through
the Slovenian, Austrian, German, back into the Austrian, and then the Italian
Alps.  Or, the time I played bumper cars on a hairpin corner with a man in
the Albanian mafia and got chased across the border into Macedonia!  Anne still hasn't
forgiven me for that one.

That said, you should probably know that I like to have fun, I work hard and
I'm willing to take risks.  I believe that being a wedding photographer is
not for the faint of heart.  During my days as a freelance travel photographer/writer,
I learned that the best images don't just happen because you've bought a plane
ticket.  In over 30 countries, I found that the most compelling images
come from getting inside the life of a person or falling in love with a place.  My most cherished picture
of you is likely to come after we've had a beer, and your cousin has shared a
funny story about when you were little.

Thank you for looking, and don't be afraid to leave a comment.

Pictures from the final day of the Zac Posen/Neiman Marcus fashion show at Pravda Studio in Seattle.  It is still amazing to me how much work goes into putting on a 15 minute fasion show.

Behind the scenes @ Zac Posen/Neiman Marcus Fashion Show – Pravda Studio- Day 1

The mission: Shoot a fashion show like a wedding at Pravda Studio in Seattle.

Let the sexy-time commence… Boom!  I’m really excited about these pictures and the project that has consumed the last two days of my life.  I shot still images, and also did some time-lapse video- you know, the movies where clouds move accross the sky really fast or a flower grows up in one minute.  Anyway, the final product is going to equal the square root of awesome!

A little youtube video about Zac Posen can be seen here.

Below- My favorite image of the day, if not the entire show.  It shows how hard the work is, but also the beauty.  The guy putting the model’s shoe on probably worked two 15-hour days!

Jenny - Hey! I was one of the models in that show and I just wanted to say what a lovely job you did shooting the backstage area. On an added note, mine are the shoes with the rings inside of them...my parents first wedding rings. Thought that fit in accidentally well with your theme.June 22, 2009 - 8:21 pm
